Off Dancing with the Pyksees!

3/30/2017

0 Comments

 
​Starting my new Pyksee series and I thought 'what really is a Pyksee...(Pixie)?'   Historically they are called Piskeys or Pixies (also pixy, pixi, pizkie, piskies and pigsies).  So many names for such a little thing.  As a kid I grew up with what was called a "Pixie" hair cut and even now my haircut is along that same line.  A broad characteristic of a Pyksee is short and sweet... maybe with eyes that have a slight slant upward at the temple.

​My first Pyksee beginning the series will have laughing eyes.  As I start pulling him together, his story will be about finding his laugh.  In his development, hopefully he will reveal not only how he lost his laugh but more importantly, how he found it again.  Laughter is an important element of the Pyksees.

As I continue  my study of the Pyksee, most books acknowledge that they are mythical creatures of folklore.  That Pyksees are considered to be particularly concentrated in the high moorland areas around Devon and Cornwall, suggesting some Celtic origin for the belief and name.  
​I am so excited that I will soon begin my trip to Scotland and the surrounding area.  What fun it will be to explore the history and magic.  To be able to trace the roots of the Pyksee by visiting Cornwall (as that place is certainly on my agenda).  I am even hoping to be served tea out of a real Cornish tea pot too!  

As my Brownies helped me see the magic and allowed me to invite them in, my Pyksees will teach me how to dance, to find the rhythm and flow of the music which brings forth my laughter.
